Misbranding, Section 403 (g) (1), the article purported to be, and was rep- 
resented as, apple butter prepared from evaporated apples, a food for which a 
definition and standard of identity has been prescribed by the regulations; and 
the article failed to conform to such definition and standard since it contained 
added dried pear, which is not permitted as an ingredient of apple butter pre- 
pared from evaporated apples, in the definition and standard.
DISPOSITION : October 13, 1947. A plea of nolo contendere having been entered, 
the court imposed a fine of $2,000, plus costs.
